For some context, I’ve had 2 relationships(them being F)in the last 5 months, both ending with me(m14) breaking up with them. I figured out that I’m not emotionally mature enough to feel romantic love. But recently, I’ve developed a “crush”; and I use quotation marks because I can’t tell if it’s just me wanting to be around them, or if actually like them. They have been in my advisory all year, even when our schedules changed, and recently Ive Been constantly thinking about them. Not just about them in general; they’re laugh, they’re smile, they’re voice. But I can’t tell if I’m subconsciously faking myself out by thinking a certain way because I think I have a crush. Even if I do, I don’t know if she likes me. I think She laughs harder around me, but I’m pretty sure I’m imagining that. You see what you want kinda thing.
What should I do about this?

Honestly, all I can really say is to not rush into things. Maybe after a couple weeks or a month or two, you will move on and realise that nothing wouldn’t happened and just like your last two relationships, you would’ve lost feelings fast. But on the other side of things, maybe it doesn’t go away and you two develop a really good connection. In that case you ask her out, on a date and go to things outside of (I’m assuming) school or your usual friend group.
There is absolutely no rush to work things out and it is far better to just wait a couple months than to have another relationship that burns out fast.
